Adopt Monty

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Beautiful big boy Monty is dog number 15 looking for a new family in 2026. He is approaching 2 years old and is a very loyal, loving, big baby dog. Monty can be left alone for 2.5/3 hours and happily greets you with some woofs to show his excitement that you’re home! He is a big boy and does tend to chew when anxious so this may be a possibility in his new home. He has no sense of how big he and as you can see, this big pupper is very happy around children and whilst he tries to be gentle, he can accidentally knock them over due to this size. He is an inquisitive boy and loves to sniff out his snacks so snuffle mats, kongs, lick mats would be lots of fun for Monty. His main issue is the unpredictable reaction towards other dogs.. his current family feel this is due to fear but unfortunately he is becoming too strong for them to manage. He is an angel dog at home, large lazy boy, who doesn’t seem to need loads of exercise. He can open doors very easily and usually helps himself to a nap on one of the children’s beds!

About Monty

What life with Monty looks like

Monty is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at High Hopes Dog Rescue in United Kingdom.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Monty, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Monty?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. High Hopes Dog Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Monty on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Monty if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — High Hopes Dog Rescue will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Monty already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Monty isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with High Hopes Dog Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Monty and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
